Cinnamon and the April Shower (Solomon Raven Series)

It's spring! The forest is full of newborn animals and plants. An April shower frightens Cinnamon, her new cub, and their woodland friends. Solomon Raven explains the importance of rain for animal and forest survival.
The popular Solomon Raven series (Cinnamon and the April Shower, Mason Moves Away, Lewis Cardinal's First Winter, A Home for Pearl Squirrel) features seasonal stories with recurring north woods animal friends. The woodland settings offer insight into the changes of the forest landscape, and each story involves a subject that affects children on a day–to–day basis. No matter what the issue, Solomon Raven, the wisest bird in the forest, has the answer.
